The 3 main differences are that the the Genesis is steel, the GT is Alu, the Genesis has full Deore kit the GT uses some Tektro parts and the Genesis has Rockshox forks whereas the GT has Suntour.

Personally I’d get the Genesis and I’d say it was easily worth £70 more – but it is a pretty personal thing, especially the whole steel vs aluminium thing. You really need to ride both and see what you prefer and what fits.

Genesis is a newish British based company. More details http://www.genesisbikes.co.uk/ and some reviews too.

Well, I've plumped for the Genesis tlr so I hope it's good! Was swayed by the better kit, the "feel of steel" and the fact they didn't have the GT frame in my size!

Not got my hands on it yet, can't wait.

I've got a genesis flyer singlespeed and I really like it. bit pricey though, but i wasn't too bothered as it was an insurance replacement.

BKB, you lucky thing, that's a sweet ride, and a fantastic deal. Makes me want to sell my scott and start looking for a Santacruz. I'va always had a softspot for them.

hmmmmm!
